Advanced Search CapabilitiesBugzilla offers two forms of search: A basic Google-like bug search that is simple for new users and searches the full text of a bug. A very advanced search system where you can create any search you want, including time-based searches (such as "show me bugs where the priority has changed in the last 3 days") and other very-specific queries. |
Email Notifications Controlled By User PreferencesYou can get an email about any change made in Bugzilla, and which notifications you get on which bugs is fully controlled by your personal user preferences. |
Reports and ChartsBugzilla has a very advanced reporting systems. If you want to know how your bug database looks right now, you can create a table using any two fields as the X and Y axis, and using any search criteria to limit the bugs you want information on. |
Time TrackingYou can estimate how many hours a bug will take to fix, and then keep track of the hours you spend working on it. You can also set a deadline that a bug must be complete by. |
Bug Lists in Multiple FormatsWhen you search for bugs, you can get the results in many different formats than just the basic HTML layout. Bug lists are available in Atom, if you want to subscribe to a search like it was a feed. They're also available in iCalendar format, so if you're using the time-tracking features of Bugzilla you can see where your bugs fit into your calendar! |
Scheduled ReportsBugzilla has a system that will send you, another user, or a group that you specify the results of a particular search on a schedule that you specify! It can be at any time of day, and it can happen as often as every fifteen minutes. |
Request SystemThe Request System is a method of asking other users to do something with a particular bug or attachment. That other user can then grant (say "yes" to) your request, or deny (say "no" to) your request, and Bugzilla keeps track of their answer. You can use it for various purposes; whether you need to ask for code review, request information from a specific user, or get a sign-off from a manager, the system is extremely flexible and can do what you need. |
"Watch" Other UsersIn Bugzilla, you can say that you want to 'watch' another user. Then, you will get every email that users gets from Bugzilla, as though that user was you. This is particularly useful when one developer goes on vacation and another needs to handle that developer's bugs while the other developer is on vacation. |
